This one is especially for all the Viet Nam Vets. From the stories they have told me I'm sure they can relate.

The purpose of this thread will be to pool our resources and ideas to counter the attempted take-over of our nation’s capital and foreign policy.
It is not the place to voice your disgust with those that feel it is necessary to present a street presence to counter the dregs of society seeking to undermine and destroy our country and our leadership. If that is your purpose, please move along.
On January 27, 2007, Thunder90 posted a thread to advise us of the next convergence on our nations capital by the anti-American hate-mongers. This gives us SEVEN WEEKS to organize and strategerize.
While reading Thuder90’s thread and the AAR from the DC Chapter’s counter demonstration last Saturday, January 27th, you will find inquiries in regard to transportation, hotels, metro lines and the like. There were also a number of Freepmails discussing these issues.
For those interested in making our presence known in Washington, DC on March 17, 2007 please feel free to offer what you can.
· If you are driving and have room for others, let us know the general vicinity you will begin the trip. I have an offer now of someone willing to pay for half the gas to share a ride.
· We already have offers of rooms/beds for those that need a place to stay. We can always use more!
· Perhaps you can rally enough interest in your area that renting a van or chartering a bus would be worthwhile. Let us know and we will see if that can be arranged.
· Those that live in the greater DC area or will have a vehicle at your disposal may be able to help shuttle folks from hotels or metro stations.
· We may need wheel chairs and those to push them.
· Those that have blogs, talk shows, columns or access to others that do – please share!
Any specifics should be discussed via FReepmail!

(D.C. Chapter Report on 1/27/07)
There are no formal plans at this time. Why plan a big rally/counterdemonstration if no one plans to attend?
Rest assured the DC Chapter faithful, with assistance from local citizens and troops, will be in DC on March 17th between 11:00 AM and however long it takes to ensure our presence is known.
The question is – WILL YOU BE THERE?
cobra's Post #396 Ping.
I will not be there. I do not have the options of taking off from work.
He came here to serve while others were going to Canada to flee.
Now many of those that fled are back and can be seen on the streets of our nation's capital on March 17th.
Could this beautiful photo of eagles by any chance be in Homer, Alaska?
After the dream, this is my favorite part.....
I believe that this meeting planned for March 17, 2007 is becoming a snowball effect in that more and more Americans are being stirred and moved to join our military at the Vietnam Memorial.
Please get the message out, spread the word... we need more eagles like you to stand side by side with our military. Won't you join The Gathering of Eagles?
You are now on the list. Thank YOU!!!
Thank you!!! Now at 73!
Check your Freepmail.
You'll be standing with us in spirit, Marine_Uncle.
Put me on the list, if not already.
I'm bringing a sign that will read:
Muslim + Liberal = Miserable
Is that too un-PC? Personally I don't give a rat's ass (I came up with it) but I don't want to be too offensive for others. I'm new to this.
Feedback please.
Waiting patiently......................
In regard to your sign...1st amendment and all that!
You must have a malfunctioning mailbox then cause it's been there for about a day and a half!!LOL.
I FOUND IT!!! You have FRmail! ;*)
Got it!!
I thought the weather at William and Marry was great - or maybe it was just the great turnout by the collage kids in support of us.
This one is especially for all the Viet Nam Vets. From the stories they have told me I'm sure they can relate.
BTW..thanks for the Freepmail. Will get back.
You must see this!!!
I knew Tom was the right person to pass the info about GOE to :) Mr. Craighead is a great guy, I've known him now for about 5 years and he is incredible!
